Tinkerbelle

I always shake them. Maybe it is just me. I am going to give it a few days and try again. If that doesn't work, I will try another week before making a final call.

So, I am a little confused on this one. I LOVED it in my sniffie....so I ordered two samples. Not something I would use a lot, but I wanted to have a small supply. But oh....this time when I used it, it smelled burnt. Maybe it needs to settle a little, but I don't see anything in the notes that would cause that smell. And I didn't get it AT ALL with the sniffie, which I got 2 decent applications from. Any thoughts? I mean I LUUUURVED this!! I am going to be sad if this doesn't settle out.

So, at first this was SUPER STICKY sweet on me, which I did not like. About 20 mins in, the tuberose started to come out. It is a pretty scent, but not sure it is me. I might let it age a little and try it again. I love the tuberose, but if that sweetness overpowers it, I won't be able to take it.... it tends to make my head hurt.

Dolly....do you think this scent would cover UN LFN? I don't smell the LFN but I know others find it stinky so I just wondered. I have 2 scents w LFN and the UN but I sooooo adore this scent.

So I tried my sample of this today. I didn't love it as much as I thought. On dry down, it was better, but it gave me a little bit of a headache. I only used a wand dab to sample the smell, so it wasn't an OD headache. After about an hour, I smell mostly the butter/cream. I will say, however, that MRF w SS4W and Sneaky Clean can give me a headache, so it could be the phero. However, when I wear my UN Bang with LP Red, it has never bothered me. So not sure in that regards. I will try it again on another day to see if it happens again with this one. I have gotten good results with BANG, so I am hoping I can make this work and NOT have to endure the headache. I can definitely layer the scent if it isn't exactly what I am looking for.

So I've been using the scented version of this, but got a bottle of the UN. I have gotten GREAT results with the scented one. Since the mcgs are different, how should I use this one? Maybe start with 1/3 of what I was using in the scented and go from there if the results seem dampened? I was thinking of adding some to a little bottle with LP Red...probably maybe 1/3 LFN, 2/3 Red?? Or if I use it straight, do 1/3 of the app points then layer over with whatever scent I choose that day?

I got mine today!! WOOT! I watched and waited for the mailman so I could intercept the package without getting questioned by the visitor....lol. Covert Ops for REAL!! ha!

Very interesting. I have seen the studies on the lavender/pumpkin pie, etc. I had not seen the part about androsterone, I don't think. While there is now evidence of the Lavender/Pumpkin connection, I am sure that if tested, there are plenty of others that do the same. Look at how LP Red seems to affect *most* men. Does it matter if it specifically increases the blood flow by a certain amount? I can see where that would be especially useful in cases of ED, etc., but I think that there are many instances on this forum of women stating how cops helps in that department a great deal. There is SOOOOO much we DON'T know...that is why I seek this stuff out. I like SOLID proof. But even with studies, it is a small sampling. We have such a wide variety of ladies/men/circumstances here that this board is SUPER educational. I wish we had MORE people sharing so we could start to see if there are connections between personalities, traits, medical issues, etc. I wish we could all sit down and have a round table discussion in DEPTH and just take notes. But what I DO KNOW is that the pheros work. I just want to know more about the factors that influence them....and gender is obviously a big one. But what we CAN learn from studies is patterns...and that gives us better knowledge to start our own experiments with. I just ordered some sugared lavendar and sugared pie spices...I am going to see how they smell together... it sounds weird, but I thought the sugared part would help. I have mixed lavender and vanilla before and didn't like it. Anyhoo...thanks for that article.

So, as I am trying to finalize my last sale order, I am pulling out EVERY sample I have...and came across CP. Lord, have mercy. I think I smelled it before but never put it on. Selfies??? Whoa!! I only put a little on, too. So now I am sitting here contemplating next time I have any alone time with TG...do I continue with the LFN that seems to have been working or hit him over the head with this?? I do fear, however, that I might become TOO forward because right now, I have ONE THING on my mind. If it makes HIM feel like it makes ME feel, and he associates that feeling with ME.... I'll buy every bottle in stock! Holy moly!! I sure hope I get to try this out in an intimate setting sooner than later. The only other thing that has given me these kinds of selfies is BAM! And that knocks me for a loop EVERY time. It really is an instant turn on.

WOOHOOO!!!! Yes, please hold a bottle for me, too. Unless you just WANT us to order through the cart. Otherwise, I'll be sending over another request for invoice today.

Oh shoot!! Yes, I have tried TH....I have gotten much better results with H&S in my particular situation. Ah well... if anyone opts out, let me know. ETA: Are there any scented versions? Samples or bottles?

Is the H&S also $10 off or just being discontinued after the current bottles sell? Either way, can you hold one of them for me? I am putting together another SALE order as we speak...just about to check what is left on the freebies list. Should be able to send for an invoice by the end of the week if not today. But I'd LOVE to have at least ONE bottle of H&S for keeps.

Thanks! I didn't order anything custom, but I know you guys are probably extra busy with the sale, too. I was just curious. And patience is NOT my personal strength....lol! I do, try, though....really...I do.

Do you guys ship on a certain day of the week? I have always noticed that I seem to get my emails on Thursdays...so just wondering. I am *slightly* anxious to get my SALE order, but I know you guys are swamped. AND...I wanted to get it before I had company this weekend. I don't want them asking what is in my box. haha!

I haven't gotten a chance to try this and see how it affects others, but I LOVE the scent!! And I love that it lasted all the way through the night. When I woke up and rolled over, I smelled it and then had to sniff my wrists again. lol. I am reading about all the ways you all have combined it with other pheros...I cannot WAIT to give it a try!

Thank you. That's good to know. I'm guessing it's probably the same with Perfect Match, as far as being a minute amount?

OK thanks. I tried PheroGirl last night and did not experience it so I'll try an Occo again tonight and see. Could have been a fluke.

Thanks. He hasn't seemed to react negatively to it, but I have been wearing one of the two (PM or LFN) just about every time I see him (which is 2-3 times a week). I have tried TH around him and seemed to get NADA. He has come across extra friendly with H&S and possibly once with Lumina when I first started playing with the pheros, so I think he must be a good EST responder... I know he likes to "take care" of me from previous experiences. I am just trying to seek out what he responds BEST to, and right now, that appears to be LFN, but I didn't want to overdo it, either. Even though I see him 2-3 times a week, my extended time with him is limited and sometimes downright rare that we get to spend any actual time in conversation here lately. I don't want to mess up what little time I do get. And I NEVER want to make him feel depressed.

So....I am trying to bump this because I have read all the previous posts that have been written about androstadienone on here. In the older ones where Ail was commenting, at the time, only SS4M contained it. I know we now have PM, LFM and LFN that have it in the blends. Since PM and LFN have been ones I have really grown to like here lately, I was wondering if any of you had noticed the depressive affects on men when using them? Or do you think the blends have enough other components that it mostly wards that off? Just wondering, as the LAST thing I want to do with my TG is create a sense of depression that he associates with ME. So far, he has reacted well to both blends, as far as I can tell, but I also know that repetitive exposure could increase the potential for this to happen. Thoughts? Experiences? TIA!

Question about the OCCOs...any and all of them. I wore OCCO White yesterday for the first time under LFM in Sensual Harmony. It smelled divine and I never detected ANY cops smell at all. THEN this morning, when I was rolling over in bed, I got what seemed like a waft of poop smell!! I seriously started looking to see if the dogs had an accident. I laid back down and it happened again when I rolled over. I tried to waft the smell up from the covers to see if it was residual cops from my torso, and even smelled my wrists where I had smooshed it the night before, but couldn't detect it on my skin. Nor did I get it from wafting the covers...lol. It was strange. Has anyone had the OCCOs scent disappear and leave a nasty smell afterward, potentially from the cops? I have worn LFM with SH to bed multiple times and never had that happen. In fact, I've NEVER had that happen with anything....and it was rather yuck. :/ Could it have been the cops lingering? Because I can NOT figure out WHERE that smell came from.

Ok, so I had to report back. I wore this again yesterday and the "quiet" guy who got all talky last time was once again chatty...and smiley... and I even made him laugh at a rather inappropriate time and I was NOT trying to! He is WAY too young (daggum it) but it made for a fun time. I also got to wear it around TG again this past week and he sat near me during a presentation. We talked for awhile after, but we were in a businessy setting so IF it affected him, I didn't really see it. But IF the LFN is what got him last time with limited exposure, he definitely got it today. I wore the same amount, he was within 2 feet of me for probably 30-45 mins (there was only one chair between us and no one sat in it). And when he DID sit down, I felt my body heat up so I KNOW some diffusion HAD to happen. Oh, if I could only read his mind. Can we get a phero for that??? ETA: I kept wafting my top when I was near TG...lol...and if nothing else, I smelled MARVELOUS!! ha!

Good info!! Thanks! Keep it coming! ETA: I went back and read those links, and the thing is, he is still looking at it and most of his "reports" are about how women are affected when men wear the mones. :/ I wish there was a true study somewhere about the pheros in reverse. I have read in other places, for instance, that DHEAS kills the fallout effect when men use it with other pheros, yet it is in products here where people seem to have experienced the fallout, or at least something similar, when women use it. So I am wondering if it kills it for women, but NOT for men? Things like that are the questions I have...how do we experience them DIFFERENTLY?? Hedione supposedly increases certain responses in women whereas, men do not get the same effects when a woman wears it (according to the research I have read).

I was just wondering if you guys had read any studies about phero effects on men BESIDES cops? It seems that ALL I can find is about how pheromones work ON women FOR men, but nothing in the other direction. I really wish I could find something. I believe they work, I just like researching the nitty gritty, I guess. I am a nerd when it comes to knowing the HOWS and WHYS.

I'm super excited to try it again. If a few seconds did THAT, then I cannot imagine what being in the wake of LFN for an extended time period must be like!

Welcome! I have only been here for a few months, and I, too, came for the pheros. I have always had to be super selective about perfumes because of my allergies, so I had actually started making my own scents with essential oils. I didn't plan on trying any scents and just happened to come in around Pherotine...so I bought up a lot of the UNs, BUT did get trial vials of some of the scents to save money....Aaaaaaannnndddd the rest is history. I have only had one or two give me a headache and I think it was bad timing/dosing of the phero. So now I am in love and have spent WAY more than I should have, but it is worth it! The scents are MARVELOUS, and the pheros, though they take some testing, are proving to be quite fab, too! Hope you enjoy and I look forward to when you ARE ready to review. Because I LOVE reading people's stories!
